No not poker degens lol but real life degens. I do it now and again but I tend to buy them stuff rather than give them money. Had a min cash tonight at Alea and 3 degens who had £2.50 odd between them asked for some change, I said nope but I will buy them food. So bought them a lump each at the kebab shop across the road and they were fucking delighted hehehe. As sad as it sounds I actually feel good about myself even though I'm a bit pissed  |

If I'm not busto I generally will give a quid or summit, people say it could be a con etc but I wouldn't sit in the cold for five minutes for a quid so I don't really care what they do with it.
I'm assuming by degens you mean homeless people lol.

No some guy couldn't fold a gutshot in a pot for 2/3 of the chips and ended up hitting a bigger pair. Bit frustrating as he's won that comp a few times recently as well as the Monday gala one,good bankroll boosters lol |

same as mond - if i'm not skint and they seem genuine i'll give them some change. if i've got no change i'll give 'em a couple of fags. wouldn't do the 'i'm buying you food instead' thing coz tbh if a couple of drinks is what they want to get them through the night rather than a burger then that's kind of understandable and I'm not going to patronise them by making that call.

Hmmm, I think booze is the only thing I wouldn't buy them tbh but each to their own. They were asking for the money for food anyway, I just wanted to make sure they spent it on what they said really. |

Don't blame you mate, I know people have been saying don't know why you bother to tony but when you have a record like he has in the comps how can you not? £660 is a decent night in a cash game and sometimes it feels like less work in those comps lol. The Monday gala one only gets 40-50 runners and is usually between £600-£800 ftw |
